Excellent Women |
What an excellent book. Pym deserves the accolades she has received and it is great that her reputation has been revived. In Mildred the reader meets a character who despite the rather bleak status she ascribes to herself of being an excellent woman, nevertheless is not to be pitied. Her observation of her world will make you smile - and wince. Pym's dialogue is a joy to read.
